Abstract EN
There has been a growing public dissatisfaction with the visual impact of the built environment in the local Cairene context in the past few decades.
There is a quite difference between public taste and the professional scale of measurement.
It is argued that this dissatisfaction is a result of the lack of empirical studies that validate urban design controls.
The aim of this paper is to verify local contexts visual compatibility levels.
A survey is conducted in two different local districts exploring the architectural features leading to visual compatibility from the perspective of the professionals on one hand and the laymen on the other.
The compatibility ratings were analyzed by Regression.
The results outline factors affecting the visual compatibility in Cairo, highlighting non-homogeneous facades, testing and evaluating the different architectural features and physical attributes which replicate or contrast with the facades.
These outcomes may help overcome the problems we are facing nowadays in streets and residential compounds wher
